Seattle – Amazon.com has curated a wide range of wearable devices into a separate area within its electronics department.

The new Wearable Technology section features activity trackers, smart watches, wearable cameras, healthcare devices, wearables for babies and pets, and consumer buying guides. Vendors include established brands like Samsung, Jawbone and GoPro, emerging brands like Basis and Misfit, and forthcoming devices from brands like Narrative and Bionym, the e-tailer said.
